N01001-5

System name:

MSC Masters/Chief Engineers Biographical Data File (April 28, 1999, 64 FR 22840).

Reason: The Command no longer tracks or updates biographies. Records no longer necessary and have been destroyed.

N04050-1

System name:

Personal Property Program (February 22, 1993, 58 FR 10734).

Reason: The Department of the Navy is deleting this system of records from its inventory because the Department of the Army, as the executive agency for DoD's surface passenger and personal property program, has an established DoD-wide system of records for the maintenance of these records (A0055-355 MTMC, entitled ‘Personal Property Movement and Storage Records’).

N05800-2

System name:

Legal Records System (February 22, 1993, 58 FR 10770).

Reason: As a result of realignment, Navy hospitals no longer report to the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery. Accordingly, their legal office records are covered under a variety of other Navy legal systems. Hence, a separate distinct system for BUMED and the hospitals is no longer needed.
